A sinking dream By LIZZIE STIPCEVIC
THE Olympic dreams of aspiring young local swimmers are being sunk because of the dilapidated condition of the city’s main public pool, according to a local action group. A group known as the ‘Community Aquatic Centre Committee’ is pushing for the redevelopment of the aging Port Macquarie Olympic Pool. “It’s a community facility used by a lot of people, that’s broken, and needs to be fixed very soon,” explained Greg Freeman, Committee spokesperson. “We need pressure from the public and we need to work with the (Port MacquarieHastings) Council to make sure that we can give them the information we need from the community. “At least one of the private schools in Port Macquarie has to go to Wauchope for their carnival due to the pool here not being able to fit the capacity. A proper aquatic facility would have bigger lanes therefore more regional carnivals, therefore more potential for our locals.” According to Mr Freeman the Port Macquarie Pool has severe structural issues, which were identified over 15 years ago. “There was a major study done in 1999 and in 2000 which recognised back then that it (the pool) needed urgent action, but not much has happened in 17 years,” he said. “I think realistically something within 4 or 5 years would be a realistic timeline. Of course being an optimist, I would like to see it a lot sooner than that. I think the state and federal
governments need to be engaged as well.” One of Australia’s best recent swimmers, James Magnussen, comes from Port Macquarie. However, it is a major concern to Mr Freeman that future Olympians aren’t being nurtured because of the rundown facilities. “There is squad training that comes out of Sydney in the January holidays and they bring 30 or 40 kids for a training camp,” Mr. Freeman said. “We can’t fit them all in our pool so the rest of them go up to Noosa Heads where there’s a big facility. “There’s lost opportunity to get high quality squad training happening here because of the limitations of the pool size.” The costs of either refurbishing the existing pool or building a new aquatic centre are still being evaluated. “We don’t know the costs at the moment because there’s a whole range of possibilities,” said Mr. Freeman. “The refurbishment of the existing pool might be a couple of million and a new aquatic centre on a green field site could be 10-20 million. It’s a big range of pricing. “As a committee we haven’t really focused on that yet. We are trying to focus on what the key elements of the aquatic facility should cover. For example, a 50 metre outdoor heated pool, a 25 metre indoor heated pool, a pool for people to learn to swim, maybe a gymnasium, maybe a café. But we as a group are trying to get community feedback as to the essential elements of what an aquatic facility should be.” • Continued Page 8

Moving ‘home’ amidst Russian roulette By SANDY MACKENZIE Your Local Independent General Manager YOUR Local Independent opened the doors to its new Port Macquarie office on the corner of Lord Street on Thursday March 16. As many of you will know, moving premises, be it a household or business can be stressful to say the least. All things considered, the move for Your Local Independent went fairly seamlessly and without too much drama. Thanks to all those involved, especially Jade from Telstra Business Centre, Guy from Digital Signs and Printing, Scott from Delaforce Electrical, Rene from Milestone IT and Don O’Bree. You all turned up on time, did what you said you would and without you we could not have pulled it altogether. Thank you! I wouldn’t normally share this other than in From the Heart, but I needed the extra space. There was one little hiccup. Tuesday is the deadline to go to print. So, the whole move for the paper was geared around putting the paper to bed as early as humanly possible Tuesday, move day Wednesday, open Thursday and it was all going to plan, right up until 5pm Monday. Tuesday morning, we were about four hours ahead of meeting deadline and, well, the wheels fell off! The graphic artist who produces the paper for us had been in Russia for a couple of weeks. His idea of a working holiday? Yes, you read that correctly. Your Local Independent editions for the 9th and 16th March were produced from Russia! The joys of modern
technology - and this is where I roll my eyes. Tuesday morning, we could not find our graphic artist! We had plans A-Z in place. We had to install phone apps to talk to and text him, he had backup drives, his neighbours were on 24-hour duty, had keys to his house and a list of instructions if something fell over. We had it all, just no graphic artist. To say there was mild hysteria brewing would be an understatement and plan W needed to be put in to play! And then we found him. No, he wasn’t found drinking copious amounts of vodka. He hadn’t been captured by the KGB or sent to Siberia. The internet was down! He let us know at 1.30pm that he would be up and running in about an hour. We were looking at a long and late deadline! Kudos to Mark and Holly. Together they had that paper to print, just one and a half hours late! The absolute kicker and why I wanted to tell this story? Mark sent me a photo of the newly installed internet. Take a look at it, I don’t think
Happy to be in my new Your Local Independent home - on the corner of Lord Street you will ever be able to reasonably complain again about the rollout of the NBN, not ever! What really made me laugh the most? Looking at this photo (above left) - the cable that looks like a garden hose. That is the new internet cable installed that sent our paper to print. It just
doesn’t make sense. Russia is a ‘superpower’, a force to be reckoned with and this is their infrastructure to communicate? ‘Less is more’ is obviously part of the vision statement. I will be forever grateful for it, however simple the infrastructure is.
At 1pm on the Saturday afternoon a large crowd of potential buyers braved the monsoonal conditions to view the Pre Works, where sale horses were put through their paces in the ring. The way the horses handled themselves attracted 124 registered bid-card holders the following Sunday morning when the sun finally broke through the towering rain clouds. A 2012 drop gelding offered for sale by the Clairvale Performance Horses made the top price of $22,000. A Palomino mare from Timor NSW, Sonitas Playgirl, sold for the top price of $16,500. Mark said average sale price was $7336 with an 82 per cent clearance, which was an increase on last year and would definitely grow in the future. Mark and fellow sale co-ordinator, Tim McCarthy, were pleased with the result considering the conditions both vendors and buyers had to endure and wanted to thank everyone involved for their patience and understanding. “Many vendors and purchasers commented
on the great feel and atmosphere of the event,” Mark said. “Everyone helps everyone and its a real friendly place to be. “Most people said they would be back next year.” The Ray White team has put in a lot of hard work to get the sale and campdraft established. Next year’s event planning is well underway and Mark and Tim can’t wait to see the horses come back to draft for the prize pool. Their focus will be on young horses, vendors and competitors, and keeping the campdraft to a manageable size. Entries for the 2018 Epic sale will open in the first week of October, but be quick as there are limited numbers. Campdraft entries for the 2018 event will open in late January. Check out www.raywhiterural.com.au for more information or contact Mark Haywood on 0437 286 494 or Tim McCarthy 0427 674 054.
Sale Epic despite the wet By SUE PATERICK IT may have been raining cats and dogs but the Ray White Rural Epic Horse Sale and Campdraft at Kempsey Showground was a great success despite last month’s big wet. However on the Thursday morning, prior to the event commencing on that Friday, it was decided to cancel the campdraft because the ground was considered too wet and dangerous for both riders and horses. To compensate, sale organisers have decided to hold the 2017 Epic incentive draft in March 2018 prior to next year’s event. All the horses eligible for this year’s draft will be able to compete next year under the same rules. The campdraft will consist of two full rounds and a final with the 2017 Epic winner becoming ineligible to run in the 2018 Epic. All horses that remain eligible for the 2018 Epic will then go through to compete in that campdraft as scheduled. “We know that this may not please everybody,
Gelding, Clairvale Acres Inca, made the top price of $22,000 at the Ray White Rural Epic Horse Sale. (Photo: Teanna Haywood) but it was a decision made on safety for both horse and rider,” said Mark Haywood, event founder and principal of Ray White Rural of Kempsey.

Airport Group condemns racial vilification THE proposal by the Australian International Aviation College (AIAC) to substantially increase pilot training operations at Kempsey airport has generated considerable debate and concern in the community. The Save Kempsey Airport Action Group initially formed after the AIAC
lodged a Development Application with Council to expand their ground based infrastructure at the airport. Lack of information and consultation with the community by Council in regards to this DA was of particular concern. The Save Kempsey Airport Action
Group has become aware that racial overtones have entered this debate. It is understood that some of the trainee pilots have been abused in the street and shops. This is inexcusable and unlawful behaviour and will not be tolerated by the Group.
The Save Kempsey Airport Action Group unequivocally condemns racial vilification in any form. Adam Ulrick Chair, Save Kempsey Airport Action Group Aldavilla
Aviation College will boost Kempsey’s economy and jobs I WRITE today as the President of the Macleay Valley Business Chamber, the key business organisation committed to the growth and prosperity of our members and our broader community. The Macleay Valley Business Chamber Executive last week voted to strongly support the Kempsey Shire Council development application for expansion of the Airport Business Park. Major projects such as this, hard won with delicate negotiations, extensive research and community consultation, are an asset to our businesses and the people of our town. Economic modelling data shows the Business Park’s key tenant, The Australian International Aviation College, will, when operating at full capacity, create a significant economic impact for the broader Kempsey

community. Most importantly the College is expected to generate 58 full-time jobs and associated spending would create a further 226 full-time jobs in local businesses for the men, women and teenagers in our community who could otherwise face unemployment or seek opportunities elsewhere. This positive job creation would be a result of the college students spending around $8.7 million per year locally on living expenses, entertainment etc. and accompanying international visitors spending an estimated $200,000 in our local community. Opportunities such as this are rare economic stimuli for regional towns and if nurtured well can attract and create other positive opportunities to take our region into a healthy future.

TO our medical system and the caring people who make it work. I am a full-time carer for my Mum, aged 90, in her own home. She was asleep on Saturday night and I ‘chilled out’ by dancing to Elvis Presley CD in the kitchen. I fell (don’t remember how) and, with a pool of blood on the floor, I rang the ambulance. The lady paramedics were wonderful. Mum and I spent the night in emergency where we were looked after well. After the personal care I received from amazing staff, I want to express my appreciation. With 10 staples in my forehead, a black eye and sore knee this wounded fan says a ‘big thank you’.

I READ with interest the March 20 issue of the Port Chamber newsletter…I must say; for nearly eight years it generally doesn’t get much more than a cursory glance and then delegated to cyberspace. This time it got my attention! Bravo, Stephanie Baker! Stephanie is the new Executive Officer for the Port Chamber and has been in the role 2-3 months. I haven’t met Stephanie yet, but I like her already! The newsletter opened with an article written by Stephanie; Reflections on networking… Initially I thought – here we go, someone else banging on about the importance of networking and how much fun and wonderful it all is. Thank you for writing about the other side of networking, the challenges, the fear, the awkwardness and total vulnerability some us feel at such events. I related to the article so well. My life revolves around networking (as Stephanie’s does). Put networking and meeting in the same sentence and the anxiety starts bubbling up from the soles of my feet. I just want to puke! Being reasonably new to the area you would expect Stephanie to feel a little overwhelmed until she gets to know people a bit better. But I’ve networked in Port for eight years and still feel the same. Crazy but true! Check out the full article at www.portchamber.com.au

Vineyard’s vintage landmark By LIZZIE STIPCEVIC COME along and join the 150-year celebration of the first wine harvest and vintage at the Douglas Vale Historic Homestead and Vineyard. Port Macquarie’s oldest winery, Douglas Vale next month will be marking 150 years since its first vintage was produced in 1867. To celebrate the landmark, Douglas Vale will hold a Heritage Open Day on Saturday, April 22 from 9.30am to 3pm. The vineyard was founded by George and Margaret Francis who purchased the first parcel of land (20 acres) in October, 1859. In recent years, volunteers have kept the heritage-listed homestead and vineyard alive. “If it wasn’t for the volunteers, it wouldn’t be there,” said Kay Morrison, Douglas Vale’s Functions Coordinator. “The land belongs to the Lands Department and we’ve got a lease on it to maintain and restore it, so that’s what’s been happening. There’s a lot involved to run the venue - the fruit trees, the garden, the outside buildings, to name a few.” Douglas Vale has been a volunteer-run entity since 1995 and Kay said there are currently 40 active volunteers. “I take my hat off to the people that did the initial work because if you could have seen a photo of what it looked like when it was first taken on, it was just in ruins,” she said. “The amount of work that has gone on is amazing.The dedication from people who come week after week is outstanding.” The celebration on April 22 coincides with 2017 Heritage Week and is the perfect opportunity to learn about the once thriving wine-making industry of the Hastings and Douglas Vale, the largest of 46 vineyards in the Hastings in 1898. “We like to show people what happens

Top right: Attending to the harvest and (bottom right) the Douglas Vale homestead as it was in the 19th century. here at Douglas Vale, especially over the last 22 years,” said Kay. Although the homestead and vineyard has received national trust grants in the past, most of the money to maintain and run the property has come down to fundraising and the sale of its wine. “Any funds raised will be put towards a shed that we are putting up to house a lot of the farming equipment,” explained Kay. “We are also currently restoring the old cellar and making an indoor function area. We’d also like to put voice-overs in every room so that when people don’t have a guide with them they
can just walk in and go from room to room and hear from family members about the artifacts in the room and their life story. “This is the only place you can buy Douglas Vale wine. It’s not expensive either, around $1517 and it’s really lovely wine, and the port is $25 a bottle.” The Open Day will cater for the whole family with live music, trash and treasure stalls, vintage cars, tours of the homestead museum, craft displays and, of course, wine-tasting. Entry is by gold coin donation. Delicious Devonshire Teas will be available as well as bacon and egg rolls and a sausage sizzle.
Wine tastings and tours of the homestead and the property will continue for the whole day. There will also be a special release of the wonderful Ruby Port and a live performance of a historical account of ‘The Story Of Douglas Vale’. Kay and the volunteers want as many people to come along and help continue this great historic landmark. Check out the Douglas Vale Historic Homestead and Vineyard website at http:// douglasvale.com.au. Douglas Vale Historic Vineyard is located at 235 Oxley Hwy, Port Macquarie near Widderson Street.

Stage set for Chris’s debut I’m just a person who does “stuff - picture making, writing
“
and acting - because it is like breathing
Senior drama teacher at Kempsey High School, Chris Austin, is in the rehearsal stage for his debut play Told By An Idiot, to be performed at the Bandbox Theatre in early April
By SUE PATERICK CREATIVE soul Chris Austin is about to debut as a playwright when his play Told By An Idiot launches the Kempsey Singers’ season of drama at the riverside town’s iconic Bandbox Theatre. The play revolves around two characters, Albi and Sam, who consider the human condition through a series of short discussions. Ten actors will play Albi and Sam throughout the five-act play that premiers in early April. Chris is Kempsey High School’s senior drama teacher and has taught there for 12 years. He is also a talented artist, writer and actor, but doesn’t see himself as an artiste. “I’m just a person who does stuff - picture making, writing and acting - because it is like breathing,” Chris said. “I like cooking too. “It’s the best art form because it stirs all your senses: touch, sight, taste, smell and sound.” As a child, Chris enjoyed an idyllic existence in south-west England, where he lived in a 300-year-old house and played cricket on the village green. “I lived in a village that people took photos of to put on chocolate boxes,” Chris said, smiling at the memory. “It had the longest row of thatched cottages in England.” Always interested in a creative life, Chris enrolled in art and drama teaching at Exeter University and was accepted in both. His Dad advised him to do teaching because artists didn’t always make a steady income. But Chris soon discovered there wasn’t enough art being taught in his course, so he and
a few fellow students approached the facility. “They told us we weren’t studying art, we were studying teaching,” Chris said. “So we enrolled in art classes at night.” In retrospect, Chris now sees that studying teaching was a good move because it afforded him a way to explore all aspects of his creativity. “Besides, I like children,” he added. In 1985 Chris left London bound for Australia with his pregnant partner, Lyn, and two small children. They were living at Springwood in the Blue Mountains when an advertisement for a poleframe house in the Macleay Valley caught their attention. “We came up to see it and fell in love with it,” said Chris. “I was in real hippy-dom.” As peaceful as their new life was, Chris soon missed the creativity and culture that city life offered. So in 1997 he co-founded the Macleay Valley Arts Council, and was a big inspiration to its legendary Art Balls for many years. He began writing duologues for his drama students so they had something they could perform in 10 minutes and that made them laugh. The first scene of Told By An Idiot was written four years ago while Chris was trying to teach the 10 elements of drama such as voice, movement, rhythm etc His characters are named for the famous Absurdist writers Edward Albee, who wrote Zoo Story, and Sam Beckett, who wrote Waiting For Godot. When he finally picked up that first scene
again, four more followed within a month. Each scene dealt with big questions like love, loneliness, time, age and Capitalism. In Told By An Idiot, a title inspired by Shakespeare’s Macbeth, Sam and Albi also discuss the nature of reality, the play and how to give a good performance. Apart from acting in the play, Chris is also directing here in Australia. Chris and Lyn’s daughter, Abigail, is also an actor and writer and will be directing a production of her Dad’s play in late April in Madrid where she lives. She has also arranged for the play to be translated into Spanish. No stranger to directing, Chris directed Kempsey High’s successful performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in 2000. This year he hopes to stage Macbeth and set it in modern-day Glasgow to the music of AC/ DC. Told By An Idiot also stars Debbie Hannan, Craig Marvell, David Tyrrell, Gay Marsh, Anna Thornton, Lee McIntosh, Rob McAulay, Ian Yates and Jenny Marks. Performance dates are Saturday, April 1 at 7.30pm, Sunday, April 2 at 2pm and Saturday, April 8 at 7.30pm. Tickets cost $25 and are available at tickethost.com.au Productions of Gilbert and Sullivan and Tennessee Williams will be staged at the Bandbox later this year. For more information check out the Kempsey Singers on Facebook.
Like to help as mentor?
ARE you interested in volunteer mentoring? Would you like to do something worthwhile and fulfilling, and assist a young person with their future? The L2P Learner Driver Mentor Program would love to hear from you. Port Macquarie Neighbourhood Centre is seeking mentor drivers to provide guidance, encouragement and experience to our local youth, directing learner drivers on a path to gaining their licence. For some young people, the process of obtaining a licence is far beyond their reach which restricts their ability to improve circumstances, increase opportunity and reach their full potential. The aim of the program, which is funded by Transport NSW, is to assist young learner drivers to secure their independence and enable them to pursue higher learning and employment opportunities. Julie Trowbridge, Coordinator at Port Macquarie Neighbourhood Centre has been facilitating the L2P program since February, 2016 with some amazing results. “Over the last 12 months our wonderful mentors have been assisting young people to complete their driving hours,” she said. “We are not far from seeing our first learner drivers receive their licence which is very exciting for everyone involved.” L2P provides support to mentor drivers which enables them to share their skills, experience and knowledge with a young person, providing them with a path to their driving future. Training and ongoing support will be provided to all mentors and a dedicated L2P vehicle is available. Port Macquarie Neighbourhood Centre has formed strong community partnerships with Port Macquarie Holden, Port Macquarie Lions Club, Keen To Drive Driving School and other local business and services to ensure the ongoing success of the L2P program. If you are interested in mentoring, phone the Port Macquarie Neighbourhood Centre on 6584 1914 for more information.

Rotary’s big book sale By SUE PATERICK CELEBRATING 79 years of service to the Macleay Valley, the Rotary Club of Kempsey will be holding its Annual Book Sale and Battery Muster during the second weekend of April. This huge book sale is one of the club’s annual fundraisers and people who wish to donate books can drop them off at Kempsey High School. The book sale will be held at the school hall (enter from Sea Street) from 8am to 3pm on Saturday, April 8 to Monday, April 10. The club’s Battery Muster will be held at the same time and venue so residents will be able to drop their used batteries, which include batteries from cars, bikes, trucks and trailers. These batteries are then recycled. The Rotary Club of Kempsey was first chartered on August 9, 1938 and will celebrate its 80th Anniversary next year, an amazing milestone for a service club. Rotary was created globally in 1905 with the first Rotary Club in Australia chartered in 1921. Its mission is to provide a service to others by promoting integrity and advancing understanding, goodwill and peace through its fellowship of business, professional and community leaders. Rotarians are volunteers who work tirelessly behind the scenes, fundraising, distributing to a diverse range of causes, working on projects that make real contributions to their local community, and sponsoring a wide variety of youth projects. Since its inception the Rotary Club of Kempsey can list a range of achievements. It helped reform the local Scout branch in 1941 then helped build a Scout Hall in 1943. It assisted the restoration of the German Monument at South West Rocks in 1959, was
Easier access to NDIS & Aged Care services
instrumental in organising the Services Club Park in 1958 and 1959, and in 1973 it formed Operation Hay Lift to provide 480 bales of hay, money and oil to Walgett after a severe flood. It sponsored the Rotary Club of Kempsey West in 1968 and the local Probus Club in 1983. Since 1979 up to the present day, the Rotary Club of Kempsey has organised a raft of youth exchange students, both outgoing and ingoing. The Rotary Club has donated many tens of thousands of dollars to local organisations. Its current projects include Fundraising BBQ’s at Bunnings, the annual Driver Training Program for Year 11 students, Clean Up Australia Day, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards and an Annual Public Speaking Competition. They also operate the Harold Stewart Memorial Scholarship, cater each year at the Big Bash For Cash (Cricket), and work with the gardens at the Mental Health Ward at the Kempsey Hospital. The Rotary Club of Kempsey shares many projects with the Rotary Club of Kempsey West
and the Rotary Club of South West Rocks. These three clubs often work together for the shared good of the community and help each other on different projects. One major project the clubs are operating in 2017 is the Model United Nations Assembly, which will be held in Kempsey for the second year and will bring together over 70 students to debate issues of international importance. All three clubs also act as trustees of the Eric Sussman Foundation, which was created over nine years ago and distributed over $85,000 back into the local community. According to the Club’s New Generation Director, Tania Powick, Rotarians operate by the motto Service above Self. “Membership of your local Rotary Club is one way to work with like-minded people to build a stronger community,” she said. Anyone interested in becoming a Rotarian call Tania on 0419 625 556.
Co-op’s donation to maternity unit IN its centenary year, one of the region’s oldest businesses has delivered a $10,000 donation to help our youngest residents. Hastings Co-op has presented the proceeds of its centenary pin initiative to Port Macquarie Base Hospital’s Maternity Unit, which cares for newborns from throughout the Hastings and Camden Haven valleys. Maternity Unit Manager Sandra Eadie said she and her team of midwives were extremely grateful to the Co-op for the tremendous effort it made in celebrating its 100th birthday by helping to support the next generation of babies. The centenary pins have been for sale at 13 of the Co-op’s 15 businesses for the past year. During the launch of the initiative last April, the Co-op’s Chief Executive Officer Allan Gordon said the centenary pins reinforced the organisation’s family-friendly focus and its appreciation for the Maternity Unit’s vital role in the community. “The Maternity Unit is the birthplace of babies in the Hastings so it’s fitting that the proceeds of the 100-year pins will help the next generation of Hastings residents,” Mr Gordon said. “I want to thank our many customers who supported this fundraiser. Every pin sold contributed to this donation which will help the Maternity Unit to continue to support the mums and bubs who need its care.” Mrs Eadie said the donation would be used to create an education room for mothers. “We are really looking forward to creating a space that mums will be comfortable in when they attend antenatal and postnatal classes,” Mrs Eadie said. “It’s so important that mums and their partners have the chance to access birth education to help prepare them for labour, birth and parenthood. “The Co-op’s donation makes this long-held wish a reality, and our team of midwives and doctors couldn’t be happier.”

CANBERRA CONNECTIONS With Dr David Gillespie Federal MP for Lyne
AUSTRALIA’S agricultural leaders will have the opportunity to develop their skills to strongly represent their industries, thanks to the Coalition Government’s $5 million Leadership in Agricultural Industries Fund. Through the Week, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources, Barnaby Joyce, announced the fund will officially open for applications on April 5, delivering on a key Coalition election commitment which recognises the continued importance to the Australian economy of strong leadership support in the agriculture sector. A stronger agriculture sector will boost Australia’s productivity, jobs and exports and to drive it we need strong industry leaders to champion issues as well as identify opportunities for their sectors. Through the Leadership in Agricultural Industries Fund, we are supporting our farming, forestry and fisheries leaders to gain the skills they need to effectively advocate agricultural commodity priorities with authenticity into urban communities, join international trade delegations, open new markets and run national corporate organisations and agribusiness companies. The fund will ensure agricultural leaders and their organisations are equipped with the skills to fulfil regulatory responsibilities in consulting on use of farmers’ levy funds, supporting biosecurity responses and managing structural adjustment. The fund is a competitive grant process open to Australian national agricultural industry representative bodies. The grants can be used to fund activities such as professional development, training courses, webinars or strategic planning activities to give industry members the skills, knowledge and support they need to deliver on the challenging obligations national farm leaders face. This initiative forms an important part of our policy for a Stronger Agriculture Sector, announced at last year’s federal election to support Australia’s farmers who contribute around $51 billion to our nation’s economy. This once-off funding opportunity should enable peak agricultural representative organisations to develop the training and capacity to boost their elected representatives’ leadership skills long into the future. I encourage all interested industry bodies to get involved and find out more. Staff in my department are also happy to discuss the application process with interested people ahead of the grants opening. Applications open April 5 and close Wednesday, May 17, 2017.

Campaign lifts tourism figures TOURISM Campaign A Great Success: A marketing campaign aimed at driving overnight visitation and boosting local visitor economies has showcased the array of events and festivals on offer in Port Macquarie. The It’s ON! in Port Macquarie campaign was a collaboration between the state’s tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW, and Port Macquarie-Hastings Council. The campaign drove more than 73,000 website visits to visitnsw.com and generated more than 9900 leads to the industry from visitors wanting to book a trip to the region, an incredible 364 per cent above target. During Tastings On Hastings, the North Coast’s premier food and wine festival presented by Port Macquarie-Hastings Council and supported by the NSW Government, the region also saw overnight event specific visitor spend increase by 46 per cent on the previous year. Attracting more visitors to our beautiful region through campaigns such as this can have significant benefits for our accommodation providers, restaurants and cafes, shops and local attractions, and it’s great to see that this initiative contributed to attracting more travellers to Port Macquarie. For more information on the NSW Events Calendar go to, www.visitnsw.com.au or call my office on 6584 0977.

Funding Boost For Local Sport: Last week I announced more than $49,600 in NSW Government funding for a number of local sporting organisations as part of the 2016/17 Local Sport Grant Program. The funding will be used for a range of sports including cycling, rugby, golf, cricket paddling and rowing. Sporting groups receiving funding include $20,000 to the Port Macquarie Junior Cricket Club to upgrade training wickets at Stuart Park, $11,130 for the Port Macquarie Cycling Club for a variety of training and sports development improvements, $9687 for the Kew Country Club to improve irrigation, $5000 to Mid North Coast Rugby Union to assist with the hosting of the 2017 NSW Country Rugby Union Championships, $3200 awarded to the Port Macquarie Rowing Club to upgrade boat storage facilities and $1791 for Flamin’ Dragons Port Macquarie to purchase stroke and speech coach equipment.
Local Olympic dreams sinking • From Page 1 With over 180,000 paying users attracted to the pool annually, Mr Freeman says this issue should be a local priority. “A big part of it as well is trying to assist the council to find the appropriate funding,” he said. “It might be grants, it might be private enterprise being more involved. It could be a whole lot of things like sponsorships from the community. There’s a whole lot of different funding options that really needs to be explored. “We’ve been once to council and spoken to staff, but only very early on. We are going to have another meeting in four weeks, then after that we intend to get more involved. We’ve sent a letter to council, to participate in their planning process; we want to be involved in that perspective.” The ‘Community Aquatic Centre Committee’ consists of members from the Port Macquarie Chamber of Commerce, Charles Sturt University, Port Macquarie Swimming Club, Masters Swimming Club, Port Triathlon Club, local schools and several other organisations.

Blue adds colour to Aussie language my
BLUE and bluey are two different words. Blue and its associated expressions take up four pages of my big dictionary. Bluey takes up only a small portion of one page. Some people near me were heading for a blue when someone saw me and asked me to adjudicate. I’m not sure what the problem was, but I said I would look it up if they stopped arguing. They thought that was satisfactory and they went off to have a beer together. By the time they reached the bar they probably forgot what started the argument anyway. Bluey is a swag and was so called because, at least in the early days, the outer covering was traditionally a blue blanket. Blue, on the other hand, can cover many things, including bluey. Bill Hornadge in his book The Australian Slanguage (he once edited the Dubbo Liberal) said a legal summons was a blue, or bluey, because it was printed on blue paper. I never understood why an orange-headed person was called a redhead and was given the name blue. In fact, CH Baker in I Was Listening said that in the USA a red-headed man was called Red and in England he was called Carrots or
LAURIE BARBER
Ginger. “Only an Aussie could make him blue,” he said. GA Wilkes gave up trying to describe why a red-headed person was called blue. “You’ve got two chances of explaining it, yours and Buckleys”, he said. Among the meanings for blue are a fight, to run into trouble, to squander money, various animals and birds such as a duck, a parrot, a lorikeet, a dog, a lizard, an octopus and many other creatures, a flower, a bonnet, a road maker, an attack, a member of the RAAF and on it goes, including a back formation of blue. The expression “smack a blue” means to run into trouble. I have in my collection a couple of what were called Blue Books. These were published many years ago and contain details of Australia and the prominent people in it.
I also have the other end of what some people would call blue chip stocks. I wonder what they are called when they are, let’s say, not worth much. John O’Grady in Aussie English said blue stories should not be told to women, wowsers or members of the clergy. His book was published in 1967. The Morris Dictionary of Australian Words has several terms for blue but it says that bluey represented a blue blanket commonly used by swagmen in Australia. Susan Butler, publisher of the Macquarie Dictionary, said the swagmen’s bundle was invariably wrapped in the common blue blanket “made in Tasmania”. She added that the blanket was still being made “in Victoria”. She added that blue was essentially Australian as the colloquialism for an argument. She added that there was no clear evidence of the origin of blue, but the best guess was that it was linked with bad language or swearing. In old England to blue was to blush. She said that in the Philippines it was green. lauriebarber.com; lbword@midcoast.com.au

Investing in a healthier Mid North Coast Mid North Coast “ Diagnostic Imaging has a strategic focus towards attaining a strong Hospital presence in the region
“
MNCDI (Mid North Coast Diagnostic Imaging) remain a crucial part of the Mid North Coast’s medical and diagnostic network and their integration with Hospitals is integral to maintaining a footprint in the region. The MNCDI team are committed to improving health outcomes and their robust presence in regional towns is absolutely vital in working with the government, doctors and community in improving health systems on the Mid North Coast. Matt Ayers, State Manager, Regional NSW puts it clearly. “Mid North Coast Diagnostic Imaging (MNCDI) has a strategic focus towards attaining a strong Hospital presence in the region”. Patients and Medical Practitioners require comprehensive information and the most accurate diagnosis. That’s where MNCDI come in; to enable better clinical outcomes for doctors and patients. MNCDI do more than just diagnose disease. They are critical in the treatment of disease as well. MNCDI diagnose, monitor symptoms and assess patient’s treatment response while also screening for illness like breast cancer, colon cancer and heart disease. When you combine that expertise with interventional radiology, the teams at MNCDI become an integral part of the entire health system, enabling the treatment of cancers and tumours, blockages in arteries and veins, fibroids in the uterus, back pain, liver and kidney problems, for example. With cancer cases expected to increase by up to 40% by 2020, it’s essential that the Mid North Coast has the oncology services to support this
growing demand. A key strategy of MNCDI is the introduction of PET services to the region. PET (Positron Emission Tomography) remains the gold standard in oncologic diagnosis and monitoring. With the introduction of PET facilities in Port Macquarie, patients no longer need to travel to Sydney. MNCDI also continue to build a strong presence outside the hospital with investments at Highfields Circuit, which align image diagnosis,
treatment and preventative care screenings all in the one area. MNCDI’s continuing investments in state of the art medical imaging equipment and practices enable doctors to provide better clinical outcomes for patients. Referring doctors are able to receive reports and diagnostic images on any device, speeding diagnosis, treatment and convenience for patients. “It remains a focus of ours to provide diagnostic services to the community in such a
way that we can balance the technical resources to sustain long term high performance” says Mr Ayers. “Ultimately, the sense of appreciation we get from the community is the driving force behind our imaging team.” About Mid North Coast Diagnostic Imaging: Established in 1976, Mid North Coast Diagnostic Imaging is the leader in patientcentred medical imaging. With 7 local, 130 extended highly qualified imaging specialists and 60 locums with sub-specialty skills using the latest imaging technology, MNCDI can help enable better clinical outcomes for doctors and patients. Clear and accurate medical imaging services are available at 15 regional centres across Port Macquarie, Wauchope, Laurieton, Taree, Kempsey and Forster. Services include X-rays; Computerised Tomography (CT scans); Fluoroscopy; 3D Mammography/Breast Tomosynthesis; Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI); Nuclear Medicine; Ultrasound; Doppler; DEXA (Bone Densitometry); Dental X-Ray – OPG (Orthopantomogram) and Biopsy.

Our rich history THE exhibition launch of ‘Five Women Connected and Seen’ will be on Thursday April 6 at 10.30am in the Nulla Nulla Gallery at the Slim Dusty Centre. The exhibition brings together five artists from the mid north coast - Aunty Esther Quinlin, Rosalee Quinlin, Mabel Ritchie, Alison Williams and Verquelle Fisher. Each of the artists will exhibit work in the gallery exploring their cultural identities. The exhibition will run until May 31 and each of the five artists will do a residency in the Nulla Nulla Gallery where they will paint and create artworks in situ. Visitors and students who visit the exhibition and gallery will be able to see how the artists produce their artworks, with the artists answering questions and sharing their rich cultural stories and history. The exhibition project is the third collaboration between the Slim Dusty Centre and the Dunghutti-Ngaku Aboriginal Art Gallery (DNAAG). So far the two organisations have worked together to promote Aboriginal artists and each other, and on this occasion received funding from Arts NSW under the Aboriginal Regional Arts Fund. Jann Kesby is the Coordinator of DNAAG and said: “DNAAG has now been operating for the past 9 years and in my role, I have built the gallery’s and the artists’ reputations by organising exhibitions throughout the mid north coast. Each artist has their own unique style and this is an opportunity for the broader community to come together to meet and talk directly with the artists.” The exhibition entry is free. RSVPs are urged if attending the opening morning tea and Welcome to Country by Aunty Esther Quinlin. Schools are encouraged to bring student groups to the gallery, while the artists are in residence.

Keep calm and carry on OUR thoughts and prayers are with the British people after last week’s terrorist attack outside the Houses of Parliament in London. In some ways, this attack was an assault on all democracy-loving societies around the world. The British Parliament was the first great exercise in representative democracy, and it provided the foundation for the Australian Parliamentary tradition. This attack is not the first terrorist atrocity carried out by Islamic extremists targeting our democratic institutions, and sadly it is unlikely to be the last. The Australian Government takes the threat of radical Islamic terrorism very seriously, and we are investing record funding into our security agencies to keep Australians safe. The Parliament has given police and the security agencies additional powers to intervene earlier to thwart planned attacks before they can be carried out, and we are sharing intelligence

with our international partners to identify extremist threats. This determined approach to national security and the outstanding efforts of our security services have resulted in 12 terror attacks being foiled over the last few years.

announced that the British Parliament would resume the day after the attack. In the face of those who seek to destroy our way of life, our best response is to recommit ourselves to defending, promoting, and maintaining the core principles that define Western society and our culture. As Prime Minister Turnbull told the House of Representatives last Thursday: “The aim of the terrorists is to prey on vulnerability and divide us. But we will never let the terrorists win – not on the battlefield, not here at home – we will never change the way we live… “We stand, all of us, with the United Kingdom comforted that we share those values – they’re ours - freedom of speech, democracy, the rule of law. We will never give in to terror. We will never stop fighting for our hard-won freedoms and standing resolutely side-by-side with free nations that fight for freedom too, by our side.”

Our own ‘Dolphin Whisperer’ By LIZZIE STIPCEVIC SPEND a couple of relaxing hours with Leigh Mansfield and you can understand why he could be called our own ‘Dolphin Whisperer’. Leigh’s passion and knowledge of these amazing aquatic mammals is incredible and something he is happy to share during his numerous trips with Port Macquarie Cruise Adventures, aboard one of their three boats along the Hastings, Maria and Wilson rivers. Leigh is a good friend of cruise owners John Fowler and Susanne Veness, and an unofficial dolphin researcher who regularly reports back with new information, and names, of the dolphins. In fact, he has named more than 160 local resident dolphins. “Myself and photographer Jodie Lowe go out on the cruises because we like to help John and Susanne and we like taking the photos,” said Leigh. Leigh and his friends share a special bond with the region’s dolphins, and the dolphins seem to feel very at ease with them too. “So far this year we’ve had four new babies born,” Leigh said. “Chip, a mother dolphin, brought her baby called Jodie, when she was really young, up to the boats. “This dolphin was only a week old and her mother brought her right up to the boat, so she feels pretty safe around us. “There’s another dolphin named Surfboard, he’s a male. He is very inquisitive with boats and he is the one dolphin that if he sees a boat, he will come right up beside it. “There is another dolphin called Butch, he is a male and the pod has kicked him out. He’s been a loner for about two years. Because we see them all the time and we know them and you get all their different personalities, like

Top right: More spectacuilar photos from Jodie Lowe and Port Macquarie Cruise Adventures. Stripe, she’s a great grandmother, she’s quite used to the boats too.” Whale watching season in Port Macquarie takes place from the last week of May through to the beginning of November, although the dolphins are there year round. “We’ve got whales through that six month period, and we’ve got more and more whales each year because they are protected now,” explained Leigh. “Back in 1967 we went down to around 300 humpbacks because we had almost killed them all. Now on the east coast we have around 20,000 whales because they are fully

protected and are multiplying now.” Leigh has been involved with his work with dolphins for six years and says the marine environment around Port Macquarie has so many highlights. “We are lucky we have so many dolphins here in Port Macquarie,” said Leigh. “People can see them all the time from lighthouse beach and see them jumping in the waves. They are a big tourist attraction. “But we just do it because we love it as a hobby and we are lucky that John and Sue are really nice people. They have been doing these
river cruises for more than 20 years and John is really knowledgeable about dolphins as well.” Leigh says although the dolphins are friendly creatures, it is still illegal to actually go and try swim with a dolphin in the wild. “People in boats must keep a 50 metre distance from the dolphins and 150m if there is a calf present,” said Leigh. “Like all nature, let’s enjoy it, instead of destroying it.” Check out http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au for further information.

Max Osborne from North Coast Local Land Services presenting a proposed project about the rehabilitation of Clybucca Wetlands to 50 people at the Oddfellows Hall in Kempsey earlier this month
Clybucca project MAX Osborne from North Coast Local Land Services recently presented an idea for the potential rehabilitation of Clybucca Wetlands to an audience of about 50 people at the Oddfellows Hall in Kempsey. The proposed project involves a partnership between a number of government departments, industry and the community to rehabilitate 1500 hectares around Doughboy Swamp in the low-lying regions of the Clybucca Estuarine areas of the Macleay floodplain. There is significant acid sulphate soils runoff and other problems, which have an impact on wildlife, commercial and recreational fishing, oyster growing and tourism industries. Local graziers and landowners voiced concerns over the proposal, but Max made it clear that the concept was in the early stages of development. An application for funding for
comprehensive and detailed modelling was lodged just before Christmas. The modelling and any detailed proposals will be carefully planned and publicised in advance with ample opportunity for community input. Local knowledge will be invaluable in developing a successful project. At the meeting, Penny Kendall from National Parks and Wildlife gave an overview of the successful rehabilitation of Yarrahapinni wetlands. It was an inspiring and thought-provoking presentation with opportunity for the general public to become informed. Organisers of the event, the Save Our Macleay River Committee, wish to thank the presenters and local residents who attended on the day.
NATIONALS Member for Cowper Luke Hartsuyker said schools in his electorate will receive books and posters to educate students about Australia’s wartime history and commemorate Anzac Day. Mr Hartsuyker said schools would receive two books - Decision: Stories of leadership in the services about the influence of Australian leaders during wartime and A Bitter Fate: Australians in Malaya and Singapore, December 1941 – February 1942. The two posters commemorate the centenaries of the Flanders Offensive and the Sinai–Palestine Campaign. “It is important that every generation understands the costs and impacts of war, both on the battlefield and at home,” Mr Hartsuyker said. “The books explore the stories of individuals who made decisions that saved lives and influenced the outcomes of battles and wars. “The posters will encourage reflection and discussion of two very different but important events in our history - the Third Battle of Ypres and the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Beersheba. “As we commemorate the Anzac Centenary 2014–2018, these materials will help our school-aged children develop an appreciation of the service and sacrifice of all those who have served in defence of our nation over the past 100 years, and those who continue to serve today.” Schools across Australia will receive the education resources by the end of March. The learning activities are also available for free download from the Anzac Portal. Schools can also enter the Anzac Day Schools Award Competition through the Anzac Portal. The posters will also be distributed to libraries, ex-service organisations, aged care facilities, hospitals, local councils, and Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade overseas missions. They are supported by an online Wartime Snapshot. High resolution versions of both posters and the Wartime Snapshot can be accessed from the Anzac Portal (http://anzacportal.dva.gov.au/)

All the Good stuff in our Community
smacked! All the Good stuff in our Community STUMP THE PREACHER
With Pastor Kerry Medway
Jesus and Easter I HAVE been saving this question until just before Easter. Q: Why are you Christians so full-on about Jesus Christ at Easter and Christmas? A: The simple answer is – there would be no reason to celebrate Christmas or Easter if Jesus hadn’t been born in a remarkable way, died and rose again from the dead! If you google ‘What person has most changed the world?’ The answer on the top 100 will be - JESUS CHRIST. The events on the first Easter changed the world. Jesus died, an innocent man on a Cross saving mankind from our rebellion against the Almighty God. His death (linked to blood sacrifice in the Jewish Passover) was the sacrifice needed for sinful/ rebellious man to be re-united with his Creator God. Jesus’s resurrection on Easter Sunday indicated that He had accomplished this and also victory over death. Christians began to preach this message about Christ. Within 300 years the Roman Empire had been impacted to the extent that Christianity became the main religion. Millions since across the ages and around the world have discovered faith in God and experienced dramatic conversions by responding to Jesus’s death and resurrection. This Easter, why not visit a local Church and reflect on Jesus and the first Easter and its significance. Some years back a friend of mine declared himself to be an atheist on many occasions and publicly ridiculed me for my faith in God. After he saw his daughter miraculously healed of what was believed to be cancer on her leg, he walked over the road from the Royal Adelaide Children’s Hospital to St Peter’s Anglican Cathedral. He stood before a huge crucifix of Jesus on the Cross, knelt down and invited Jesus into his life. He returned home a transformed man. He had experienced a real Biblical Saul/Paul conversion. He went from being a heckler of Christians to becoming one of the leading men in the Church. Let the living Jesus impact you and change your life TODAY.
Faith found in Bertie stories
Push for suicide prevention plan WITH research released today showing that more than 80 per cent of Australians support the development of a National Suicide Prevention Plan, Lifeline is writing to every Health Minister across the country to urge for a coordinated approach to Australia’s suicide emergency. The national charity’s CEO Pete Shmigel said that the study – undertaken by leading market research firm Crosby|Textor – includes compelling data that highlights flaws in current responses to suicide and demonstrates community support for change. “We have seen national suicide prevention plans implemented in up to 30 countries around the world and know the lifesaving potential of a coordinated approach to initiatives like suicide hotspots, follow up support and digital services,” Mr Shmigel said. “Between 2002 and 2013, for example, Scotland’s 10-year plan achieved an 18 per cent reduction in suicides. Over the same period, Australia saw a 20 per cent increase.” This international evidence has already prompted Suicide Prevention Australia to bring together Lifeline and others in the field to identify outcomes, milestones and investment drivers needed for a National Suicide Prevention Plan. “What we need now is Federal, State and Territory Government leadership to guide service delivery at the local level, including through Primary Health Networks who have been actively seeking such support, helping the sector take steps together towards an Australia free of suicide.” Some key findings from the study include: • 91 per cent of respondents believe we should be looking at social factors that cause suicide, and not just the outcome • 86 per cent of respondents believe that, if suicide prevention strategies are working overseas, they should be used in Australia too • 83 per cent of respondents believe that, if new technologies have the potential to reduce suicide, governments should invest in them “This study shows that Australians understand the need for new thinking and new solutions to the current suicide emergency, including a focus on social factors like relationship breakdown, loneliness and unemployment,” Mr Shmigel said. For 24/7 crisis support and suicide prevention services, please call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
Way back when With Pastor, Kerry & Julie
IN the late 1980s and early 1990s Westport Public School invited the Port Macquarie Ministers Association to join the children at the school for an Education Week/Ecumenical Church Service. Hundreds of children enthusiastically got involved, along with their Religious Instruction volunteers, teachers and the school principal Ian Hoare. Mr Hoare was the instigator of this event which ran for five years. He was a genial ‘grandfather’ figure at the school and openly showed his love and care for the children. The children responded with enthusiasm and excitement. Many of these children came from low socio-economic families in our community. Some came from broken homes and had experienced violence at home, but felt loved and accepted at Westport Public School. Mr Hoare invited me to share a special children’s story Bertie Blowfly Saves. The children enthusiastically responded and Mr Hoare asked me to share a different Bertie Blowfly story each year for the next four years. Even today, some 30-year-olds come up to me in the street and say, “Hi Mr Medway, I remember Bertie Blowfly”. This led to a children’s book being published and the fame of Ian Hoare and Westport Public School spread across Australia. At a church fete in the 1990s we offered a special treat ‘cockroach sandwiches’ which is one of the highlights in the story about Bertie Blowfly. We had a lot of trouble encouraging children to eat the sandwiches until we told them it consisted of potato chips and marmalade
every young person is valuable
jam!!!! One of the great joys of these years was seeing many children find faith in Jesus Christ though the Bertie Blowfly stories. Children all over Australia have also found faith in Jesus and at this Easter are reminded of what Christ did for them on the Cross on that first Easter over 2000 years ago. Footnote – At present Bertie Blowfly Saves is out of print. However I am hoping to re-print and publish several of the other stories that were told at Westport Public School.

Change clocks, check alarms
FIRE & Rescue NSW (FRNSW) firefighters from Port Macquarie have urged residents to check their smoke alarms are in good working order when they change their clocks at the end of Daylight Saving on Sunday, April 2, 2017. Port Macquarie Station Officer, Derek Alford, said last year marked the 10th anniversary of smoke alarm legislation in NSW. “Due to dust, humidity and age, smoke alarms need to be replaced at least every 10 years,” he said. “When householders turn their clocks back at the end of Daylight Saving we are also urging them to check whether their smoke alarms have reached their use-by date and, if they have, to replace them. “If your smoke alarm is less than 10 years old, it is still an opportune time to test it is working properly and change the batteries if it is battery-powered.” In NSW, all dwellings must have at least one working smoke alarm per level. FRNSW recommends having smoke alarms installed in all bedrooms and interconnected for maximum protection. Smoke alarms Port Macquarie C are also mandatory for all caravans, campervans, and other moveable dwellings where people sleep.

Alex a special guest
AUSTRALIAN women’s cricket superstar Alex Blackwell will be the special guest at the Hastings Senior Cricket (HRDCA) presentation night at the Westport Club tomorrow night (March 31). Alex was born in the Riverina, grew up in Port Macquarie and attended St Agnes Primary School with her twin sister Kate. She then moved to Sydney to study and play cricket. Her achievements include leading the Australian women’s team to World Cup and Ashes victories, winning several state titles with NSW and leading the Sydney Thunder to victory in the inaugural WBBL T20 tournament. Alex is the most capped Australian women’s player ever and was recently the vice-captain in Australia’s 2-1 series win over New Zealand when she dominated with the bat. Doors open at 6.30pm for a 7pm start. Entry is $30 and includes a two-course meal and a chance to win an autographed bat signed by Usman Khawaja. Everyone is welcome. Earlier in the day, Alex will also attend the St Aggies School Assembly as a special guest and take part in a ‘meet’n’greet’ at McDonalds Settlement City (Bay St) between 4 and 4.30pm where local junior cricketers are encouraged to drop in, grab a photo and an autograph. Alex is a change agent in Australian sport, a professional cricketer who has played more matches for Australia than any other female cricketer. She captained the Australian team to World Twenty20 glory in 2010 and reclaimed the Ashes against England in 2011. Drawing on her experience, Alex inspires audiences to reach and sustain success through innovation, adaptability, taking calculated risks and leadership. She talks about her decision to pursue cricket over and above a career in medicine, choosing to become a leader, teaching
Champion Australian women’s cricketer Alex Blackwell others and learning to do things differently. Alex has captained one of the most successful sporting teams in Australia, the Lend Lease NSW Breakers. In January, 2015 the Breakers won their 10th consecutive Women’s National Cricket League title. She is one of only two players to feature in all 10 consecutive wins and she was captain in the last five. In January, 2016 Alex captained the Sydney Thunder to victory in the ground-breaking
inaugural Women’s Big Bash League and she will lead the Thunder again in WBBL02. Alex has successfully combined elite sport with academic pursuits. She studied medicine at the University of New South Wales from 2002 to 2005 before making a difficult decision to leave the course to pursue her cricketing dreams. Alex changed her career direction to become a genetic counsellor, working for three years in prenatal screening before becoming a full-time professional cricketer in October of 2014.

GOLF ROUND UP PORT MACQUARIE
PORT Macquarie Golf Club has won the Lower North Coast Division 1 pennant after a convincing win over Foster Tuncurry at Harrington Waters
Eight-team competition from 2019 THE Board of Football Mid North Coast, following extensive discussion on a recommendation from staff, has decided to reduce the FMNC Premier League to an eightteam competition for the 2019 season. The 2017 and 2018 seasons will continue as nine-team competitions. At the conclusion of the 2018 season, the competition will be reduced to eight teams by relegation of the bottom-laced team. In 2019 there will be an eight-team competition comprising First and Reserve Grade, with ongoing promotion/relegation between Premier League and clubs competing in the underpinning men’s competition who meet the Premier League criteria. “This decision has been made to improve the playing standards of our Premier competition over the long term,” said FMNC Chairman Mike Parsons. “The commitment in both finance and resources is quite significant for clubs to compete at this level. “With many thousands of local juniors about to kick off their footballing careers, the Board has a responsibility to provide the highest level of football possible for our members and we have determined that an eight-team competition - with clubs competing to be promoted - will enhance the long-term quality of our game in this region. “Soccer/football is the world game and every mature competition has a vibrant culture of promotion and relegation. Eight teams with fierce competition for promotion spots can only enhance our local Premier League – no club can afford to be complacent.” on Sunday. The Port club has dominated the major pennant for some years and this is the seventh time that the club has won in the last 10 years. On Sunday they wrapped up the pennant with a 5-1 win. Youthful team captain Jackson Jubelin was the only player to lose his match, going down three and two to Foster’s Brad German. However, the youngster obviously got the best out of his older team mates with Stefan Walker, Matt Hayes, Dave Bagust and Terry Davis all winning their matches while Leon Smith had a walkover. Walker and Hayes each won two up while Bagust had a three and two win while Davis beat Ian Smith six and four. The Port Macquarie division 4 side is into the final following a comfortable 5½ to ½ win over Tallwoods in the semi-final. They will now play Wauchope in the final next week after Wauchope beat the previously unbeaten Forster Tuncurry. Port Macquarie and Wauchope had finished first and second respectively in the northern zone. The venue for the final is yet to be decided. Iain McKinlay, Kane Pollard, Jeremy Tydd, Les Murphy and Larry Collins all had good wins on Sunday while Robert Hii halved his match. The division 2 side had the bye this weekend and they still have two matches to play. They are well in contention for their pennant. Division 3 has been eliminated.
HASTINGS LADIES
THE final rounds of the Hastings Trophy nett event, monthly medal and putting competition were held at Emerald Downs on March 27 with 31 members, including three new members in Margaret Prest, Christine Smith and Marlene Davar.

footytips
Storm, Roosters off to a flyer WOW! Already up to round five in the NRL. For clubs, as well as tipsters, you can see why it is so crucial to get a good start to the season. Premierships may be won in September/October, but early season points make the run into the finals so much less stressful. For tipsters, the first few games are an indication of who is the real deal this season. Are new combinations starting to work? Are old ‘bad habits’ still there? Some of the obvious elements to NRL 2017 are that the Storm will again be a force, the Roosters will also be a major player and teams such as the Knights and Tigers are unlikely to be around when the whips are cracking. It is the big ‘middle section’ that provides the major conversation point for tipsters each week. Teams such as the Dragons, Panthers, Eels and Raiders – just how good are they in 2017? Of course you have the hard luck stories already, such as the Titans, who have been
decimated by injury. They can throw a spanner in the works in the second half of the season when these injured players return to the comp fresh and ready for action. OK, let’s tip some winners: Bulldogs v Broncos (Thursday, March 30, 7.05pm, ANZ Stadium, Sydney): Something sure is wrong at the Dogs. Smashed by Manly last weekend. They may be at home, but are up against a very keen Bronco outfit. Brisbane are 2-2 after four games, but have had a very tough draw. They will see this game as not one to ease off, but to show they mean business. • Your Local Independent tips: Broncos Roosters v Sea Eagles (Friday, March 31, 5pm, Allianz Stadium, Sydney): The Sea Eagles are shaping as an interesting proposition in 2017. So far they have spanked the Cowboys and the Bulldogs, but were ordinary in their second round loss to the Rabbitohs. Your Local Independent (YLI) tipped a big showing against

crack a break soon. Still the street-corner tip to be premiership contenders, but have to find a way to win soon. They are 1-3 after a tough draw. Eels are 2-2 and the faithful are suggesting this is the year that they will at least threaten. Pressure is growing Ricky! • Your Local Independent tips: Raiders Storm v Panthers (Saturday, April 1, 6.30pm, AAMI Park, Melbourne): How can you not tip the Storm. Not the greatest of their squads but are 4-0. Penrith walked past the Knights and are building, so could cause an upset. But the Storm at home are even tougher. • Your Local Independent tips: Storm Warriors v Titans (Sunday, April 2, 2pm, Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland): Poor old Titans. Get Hayne. Get a better roster. On the back of a surprise finals berth in 2016. Then lose a big chunk of class through injury. And now even Ryan James is in doubt (as we go to press) with a date with the judiciary. The Warriors have been lack-lustre, but you would think at home and with the Titans on their knees… • Your Local Independent tips: 30th March – 2nd April 2017 Warriors Thursday 30th March, 8.05pm, ANZ Stadium Bulldogs vs Broncos Tigers v Dragons (Sunday, April Friday 31st March, 6pm, Allianz Stadium 2, 4pm, ANZ Stadium, Sydney): Roosters vs Sea Eagles Certainly some murmurs of ‘maybe Friday 31st March, 8.05pm, 1300 Smiles Stadium Cowboys vs Rabbitohs this year’ coming out of the Dragons Saturday 1st April, 3pm, Southern Cross Group Stadium bunker. They are 3-1, and are tracking Sharks vs Knights towards a break-through year. The Saturday 1st April, 5.30pm, GIO Stadium Raiders vs Eels Tigers let a golden opportunity slip Saturday 1st April, 7.30pm, AAMI Park against the Storm last weekend. That Storm vs Panthers could have been a season-definer. Sunday 2nd April, 2pm, Mt Smart Stadium Warriors vs Titans Instead it is back to the spade-work. Sunday 2nd April, 4pm, ANZ Stadium • Your Local Independent tips: Wests Tigers vs Dragons Dragons
the Cows and now they have strung two wins in a row. The Roosters have not tasted defeat to date. Have to stick with solid form. • Your Local Independent tips: Roosters Cowboys v Rabbitohs (Friday, March 31, 7.05pm, 1300Smiles Stadium, Townsville): The Cows limped past the Titans last weekend. This game will be physically tougher, and, as we say every Thursday, the Rabbits can potentially … blah, blah, blah. Cows are under-strength, but are at home. • Your Local Independent tips: Cowboys Sharks v Knights (Saturday, April 1, 2pm, Southern Cross Stadium, Cronulla, Sydney): Unfortunately these days, anyone v Knights, you go ‘anyone’. The Sharks have pushed aside the hangover theory, but the danger here is complacency. • Your Local Independent tips: Sharks Raiders v Eels (Saturday, April 1, 4.30pm, GIO Stadium, Canberra): Raiders have to
